"That plenty of car park since many of restaurants nearby starts quite late. Restaurants environment is comfortable and windy all the time. Food is very good with combination of gravy that taste savoury and those gravy works perfect harmony when it comes to your taste bud. When you're nearby, try it. Closed on Wednesday"
